touching ghost in a dream.

[Ev]

Tonight I had following dream: I saw a town and there were 5 women living in it. One of them was special. Others hated her. Once she fell asleep, and rest took advantage of it and buried her alive. They wrapped her in cloth and put her in a coffin. Then they pushed coffin into a nearby stream. Perspective shifted and I found myself at night standing about 200 meters from the stream. There were another dream characters with me. They tell me the story of this ghost and mention that it appears every night. I look in the direction they point and see slight purple-bluish glow. I decide to investigate and go to the bridge above the stream. Someone pushes me in it. As I fall, I feel terrified of having to meet ghost. Next, I find myself in water. and ghost of this woman touches me. I feel really good. There is nothing, but love in this touch... My hand can pass through ghost, and I can feel warm and soft energy. I sit underwater without need to breathe and look at the world above. I feel great. I sit there till the morning. With sun rising, ghost disappears, but I still sit there enjoying the inner peace... Some people come and tell me to get out of water... I refuse and meditate on the bottom.... Dream fades. This dream was so good. I still can feel love from this touch... Anybody experienced anything similar?

A religous dude in the Qu'ran did. I forget his name. He got "swallowed by the sea" and came back later all enlightened and stuff.

That sounds nice. I don't know what else to say.

Emotions and feelings are amplified 100x times in dreams.... that must have been awesome, I havent felt anything like that really though, but I can imagine!

What did the touch exactly feel like? Just pure love? In its most simple and revealing form?

[Ev]

It's very hard to describe. Imagine feeling the texture of very dense warm air. it's denser then normal air, yet much softer then anything material. It's very soft and you can pass your hand through it. Some kind of mild energy is present. There is nothing treatening in this being, just love.... and it felt really amazing...

Could you die happy feeling that? I mean, is that paradise? Utopia? Better than an orgasm?

[Ev]

It was a very soothing feeling, I guess it can relieve the pain of dying.

I saw a ghost in the dream I had last night. I remember being super amazed that I had actually seen a ghost! Then a really evil guy attacked me, except that he could fly and I couldn't, so the ghost helped me and lifted me so I could fly too and fight the guy. I can't remember what it felt like, though.

Ev, that is so cool. I had an LD a few months ago in which I was floating on a nice warm pond, I then sank to the bottom and relaxed, much as you did. It was so soothing and peaceful. I wonder if this is a fundamental thing common to most people? It kind of sounds like it. Or maybe it is some kind of return to the womb thing? Aaargghh, where is O'nus!!! We could use a psychiatrists point of view here!

Oh yeah, feeling or falling in love in a dream is super-duper... Since it's a dream, everything goes just the way you want it (consciously or subconsciously), so there's no interruption of intention.
